歌词:

There's a zoo near my home

And it's always full of tourists

who come to see the lions, monkeys and fish

But I'd never been there

And I didn't know why

Animals don't have to work

Maybe I was jealous of that

But today was different

I finally walked in

I was leaving this city

'Cause I'd been laid off

"Have a good time!"

said the ticket lady

She didn't know that I came here

Only to say goodbye

The lions were sleeping

They wouldn't even look at me

Monkeys fought over an apple

That was not what I cared to see

As for those fish

Well, they were indeed swimming

The fishtank was quite small

At least they didn't pay the rent

Nothing is different

We all live by chance

Born as a human

It was not my choice

"Welcome to the world!"

they said to a baby

who didn't yet know it felt

like a giant zoo

Nothing is different

We all live by chance

Fate lifted a finger

We tumbled down deep

Some tried to climb out

Some flew out lightly

Some cried in the dark

Sorry, that was me

There was an animal show

yet I walked right past it

I was tired of human performance

And even animals had to work

Feeling so bored

I left the zoo

The pale sun was setting

And I didn't know where to go
